Honda S2000 Berlina Black AP1 - Anualmix

Honda S2000 Berlina Black Model Year 2000 AP1 By Anualmix

Objectives:

Keep the OEM+ Look, with good quality modifications and occasional trackday use.

How it all began

I've allways been a fan of the S2000 since 1999. The lines of the car, the engine it had, the sound, the 9000rpm, the reviews I heard about it, and so on.. :woohoo: . Like Jeremy Clarkson in the program of the F355 I just knew I had to have one. Years passed and finally in 2014 I completed my dream and got my hands on a BB MY00 S2000. The feeling I had when I first pressed the Start Engine button I will never forget. And when you feel that you know he's a keeper. :bow:

The first picture I have of the S2000:

It came with some minor mods but cool ones. Kosei K1 TS 17" wheels, AP1 Lip, OEM Trunk Spoiler, Eibach Springs, Red NSX Logos, SuperSprint exhaust.

Other big factor that made me buy the S2000 is the fantastic community that exists. Here in my first S2000 meet :cool:

Two photos taken a few minutes ago. In a S2000 meet and after Classic Car meet in Sintra ;)

The update is that I installed Tein Monoflex Coilovers

Regarding the Tein Monoflex update it was without a doubt the modification that i felt the most in the car. It changed completely the way the car reacts and drives. Much better compared to the oem suspension + eibach springs. It's like driving an arrow. :LOL:

Now regarding the future mods. Got 2 in the waiting line.

Mugen Intake Original + ASM Plate with mugen cut

Full car detail with Swissvax Scuderia

Anyone got feedback on J's Racing 6ix calipers? Best price/performance in the market?
